Imperial Navy Once Again Holds Off Rebel Incursion Along Five Veils Route

Rebel corvette wanted in conjunction with terrorism and insurrection.

BAJIC SYSTEM - An Imperial patrol was ambushed by rebel terrorist in the Bajic system today. The ambush failed, but the star Destroyer in pursuit of the fleeing rebels has been declared missing. One rebel ship was destroyed, but a second remains at large.

The ambush was made upon the VSD Seizure, a Victory I-class star destroyer today. The rebellion's ambush near a repair station in the Bajic system resulted in the destruction of a number of fighter craft. Giving chase to the retreating rebel ships, the Seizure has failed to make contact with the Bajic Sector Group admiralty in charge of the local effort towards the Savereen blockade.

Two relief ships, both of the Gladiator II-class star destroyer type, encountered the rebel vessels. They destroyed a Nebulon-B escort frigate. A CR90a-class corvette remains at large as it made the jump to hyperspace before it could be apprehended or destroyed. The corvette, titled 'Slippery Steve' has had its title and transponder code recorded with the Imperial Navy, and will be apprehended or destroyed on sight. All loyal Imperial citizens will notify Imperial authority with any leads.

Thankfully, despite the Rebel attempts at spreading their nihilism in the Outer Rim, the Bajic system remains in Imperial hands. The Gladiators will search for the VSD Seizure and hopefully find her and her crew inconvenienced by a faulty comm system. HNN's and our readers' prayers are with her crew.

The Bajic System is a system along the Five Veils Route, one of the Outer Rim's notorious thoroughfares for contraband. In addition to enacting an embargo on the lawless Arkanis Sector, the Savareen blockade interdicts smuggled goods (spice, weapons, and human slaves) boud for the Core and alien worlds.
